IF YOU EVER HAVE WONDERED WHAT PRODUCTS "THE FUN GUYS" LOVE TO WORK WITH BUT NEVER HAD THE CHANCE TO FIND OUT, YOU ARE IN LUCK!
We interviewed sales staff, buyers, warehouse and greenhouse staff and even a few individuals that we aren't totally sure what they do to find out which products they are most passionate about.
Gerry Gutto
...is a leading example of outstanding work ethic. The only photos we have of Gerry show him busy making calls. He brings insight and a natural curiosity into everything he does.
One of his strengths is is determination to painstakingly ensure that each customer interaction is followed through to the very end.
Outshining Gerry's flower knowledge is a tall order; he takes the time to learn about every new item before selling them. We recently had opportunity to interrupt his full schedule to ask about some of his favorites. Here is what he had to say:
White Atlantis Daisy - "Gardens America is my favorite. This grower provides the most consistent quality you could ever see when comparing these daisies to the others on the market. This also happens to be my wife's favorite flower."
Sunflowers "You can't go wrong with these any time of year. I would recommend either the lemon shade with a dark center or gold petals with a light center."
Hydrangea - "Regularly available in white,blue and mini green; Seagroatt Riccardi, LTD. sources the premium grade hydrangea that is not only larger than the competition but lasts longer in an arrangement."
Ginestra - "If you’re looking for something different to add to your arrangement you may want to consider our ginestra. It has a nice flow to it, and comes in a variety of colors from Italy or California."
Fillers - "...are coming into season! This means better quality, quantity, and availability. It’s a great time of year for flowers.”
